Which Place is Best

Partridge Kennedy Apartments have group activities available, yet solo living is the key, where each resident has all he/she needs in the apartment. There is a central courtyard that’s shared. Rent is based on a fixed low fee.

Crane Place is a much larger complex that is suitable for many congregate activities. There are regular programs for residents, a social services coordinator on-site, and large areas for sharing, including a library, a dining hall, a lobby and gardens. Rent is based on a formula related to your gross income; there are maximum income level requirements to qualify.
